Happy Halloween!!

Handsome Boy

This handsome little man visited with me on Tuesday! He will be baptized on Monday so his mom wanted to commemorate his 8th birthday. It was hard to get a serious face out of him. The weather was super cloudy and the light was actually very poor, I had to break out my super flash for some bounce light. These are some of my favorites out of many.

Dag-gum stinkin' hard pose

I am desperately trying to perfect this pose...I am in awe of Kelly Ryden's talent(s) and all the other ultra cool newborn photographers. Hopefully with my new studio and the right tools this pose will be perfected...

Birthday Baby

Jumpin' on the crazy train

These three little cuties are my two nephews and niece. How sweet are they? It was pretty windy and cool to boot when we decided to take pictures. This was my first attempt at a professional setting in full daylight. I prefer the softer light of morning or shooting in shade. I love my niece's bright outfit. My nephews absolutely adore their sister. Thanks to my SIL for letting me capture their little personalities.

Smiley Guy

Twins

These two cuties were only 10 days when photographed. They were born at 37 weeks, the boy weighing 6 lbs and the girl 5 lbs 9 oz. Both were about the same length as my little guy but skinny! How sweet are they? The girl was super easy to photograph sleeping like a tiny angel...she even gave me sweet little smiles. The boy was easy but loved his binky! I adore how they snuggled together when photographed together. Thanks to the awesome mom for letting me come practice on her precious bundles. What a trooper!!!

Blackity Black

Here are a couple photos using my refined skills on a black backdrop...mostly due to an editing trick learned Friday evening! My little boy is an awesome sleeper!!!
